Are lobstermen at risk?

Diabetes is known as the silent killer.

People with type 2 diabetes often have no symptoms at first. In fact, 4 out of 5 Americans with prediabetes don’t know they have it. Each year, millions of prediabetic Americans will progress into full-blown type 2 diabetes, many without even knowing it.

Fortunately, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has created a risk test designed to identify individuals at risk for developing type 2 diabetes. With early detection and lifestyle changes, type 2 diabetes can be prevented — or even reversed. If you are at risk, you may be eligible to participate in The Preventive Plan by U.S. Preventive Medicine.

For more than a decade, U.S. Preventive Medicine, Inc. (USPM) has been a leader in diabetes prevention, weight loss programs, and chronic disease management. Our flagship service, The Preventive Plan, is a HIPAA-secure, app-based, diabetes prevention program recognized by the CDC.

During our year-long program, participants learn how to make small changes to their daily lives that add up to big results. Participants who have completed our program lost an average of 7% of their body weight, and they come away with the skills needed to keep it off.

In the mobile app experience, participants complete gamified weekly sessions designed to hack the habit formation process. With the help and support of a dedicated health coach, participants work toward individualized goals and track progress with the help of a connected smart scale provided to participants at no cost.

The Preventive Plan members can have unlimited interactions with their coach through HIPAA-secure in-app chat, telephone, or video conference. By participating, members also earn in-app coins redeemable for rewards such as fitness merchandise, gift cards, and other cool incentives.
